Why? So you can sit here and bash them by name? It could be Jesus Christ himself and youd still badmouth everything about this event. So why are you even in the thread? We are all aware of your hate. You dont add anything else to this. And frankly, you seldom do, at least on this topic. Its the same thing over and over. We get it already. You wont be swayed, you made that clear.

Is there nothing else for you to talk about that affects you?
Why do you keep repeating yourself?

Watch
Is that date supposed to be blacked out for all eternity?

No events can ever take place on that day?

Glenn Beck Program

America's Devine Destiny is tonight at the Kennedy Center. Beck had the ministers on him show today. There were 4 of them. Can't remember their names. I am sure they are listed on his web site.

I would surmise it has something to do with what obama and the dems have done since taking power.

No, somebody claimed there will be "many" ministers/pastors, I just want names.

But Beck claims it isn't political.

I don't believe there is. He has no idea what he's talking about. Someone told him race was a good word to associate with Beck. It would get him LOTS of attention. So he ran with it like any sheeple would. Ask him to back something up and he tells you to find evidence to substantiate your position, and it's already been posted in the thread. He doesn't read it.
What's the point if it isn't for attention.

In his own way he is dishonoring MLK and the soldiers by launching an unsubstantiated propaganda campaign, IMO.

Obama would be more polarizing and since this is Beck's event, he can invite whoever he wants to. It's the Left that has a problem with it and that is THEIR problem.

Last time I looked, a reason is not necessary for people to gather and voice their opinions. Whatever reason they give, is good enough, whether you agree with it or not.
